Abstract

A socket insert component (14) of an acetabular cup prosthesis (10) is held securely within its support shell (12) by a locking mechanism comprising a circumferential groove (28) in the shell concavity (18) perpendicular to the longitudinal axis (24) of the concavity, a first circumferential rib (38) on the outer surface (32) of the insert congruent with the groove, and a second circumferential rib (40) on the outer surface (32) of the insert (14) parallel to and proximate the first rib (38), the first rib (38) snapping into the groove (28) and the second rib (40) being deformed and pressed against the concavity (18) when the insert (14) and shell (12) are assembled.
